Combs, who has been under the weather the past few days, had been running a low-grade fever and had received an antibiotic shot this morning at the county health clinic, according to Chief Deputy Sheriff Roger Newlon.

Newlon said he didn’t look good at the sheriff’s department and Combs noted he was going to go home and try to get some sleep.

Combs’ Chevy Tahoe left the road and flipped over in a ditch.

Newlon said the Indiana State Police are investigating the accident but Combs reported that he blacked out and only remembers he was driving home.

“A virus has been going around and it’s been hard to shake,” said Newlon. He anticipated the Sheriff would be released on Thursday after being observed the rest of this evening.
